This week’s issue of the Times Literary Supplement (17 February 2017, hot off the presses!) brings us a wealth of reviews and articles marking the centenary of the Russian Revolution(s), including a superb piece on my 1917 anthology by Caryl Emerson. Emerson’s writing is, as always, dazzling.

The issue also features Stephen Lovell’s piece on Douglas Smith’s Rasputin, Robert Service’s omnibus review of S. A. Smith’s Russia in Revolution: An Empire in Crisis, 1890–1928, Mark D. Steinberg’s The Russian Revolution, 1905–1921, and Jonathan D. Smele’s The ‘Russian’ Civil Wars, 1916–1926: Ten Years that Shook the World, and Wendy Slater on Robert Service’s own The Last of the Tsars: Nicholas II and the Russian Revolution.
